Here's how it goes. Dead pixels are black (same color as the screen when it isn't on. They are dead. They will never work...ever. Stuck pixels are pixels which stay one color (they are STUCK, your white pixel is stuck, not dead). These pixels can start working again. One day they may just unstick themselves and be good to go. There are programs (multiple for the pc, and i have heard of ones for the PSP but have never actually seen one) that will flash colors and you are to leave it run for hours (it is common with lcd monitors, so you leave the program run over night, the idea being it will unstick the pixel, i have tried these with moderate success.). Your options are to either hunt around for a program like this for the PSP and run it (probably overnight) and see if that helps or wait it out. Really, it is one pixel, and i am guessing during game play you dont notice it, you only see it at loading screens etc (i will admit they are a little annoying). i had 2 stuck red pixels with my DS lite (one on each screen), one went away after a few days and the other went away a few weeks or months later ( i stopped notciing it until one day i realized it was gone).
